Tickets for the 42nd Annual Telluride Jazz Festival go on sale next Thursday, February 1st at 10 am (MT). Festival organizers, SBG Productions, offer a variety of pass options to help you build your perfect experience. From luxurious Patron and VIP options, to all-inclusive 'All That Jazz' Passes and regular 3-Day Passes, there's something for everyone. Below we've listed the benefits of each pass so that you can compare side-by-side to find out which experience suits you best.

Patron Experience Pass

The on-stage viewing area offers an up close show and spectacular mountain views!

By far the most luxurious pass option, the Patron Experience features exclusive top-notch amenities making for a truly memorable festival. Patron pass-holders are treated with access to an on-stage viewing platform and a full stage-side hosted bar. In addition, pass-holders receive backstage access to a dedicated Patron Area serving catered meals throughout the weekend. Pass-holders start the weekend with a catered welcome reception followed by a private opening concert, an open bar all weekend long showcasing the best in craft beer, wine and specialty cocktails, entry to “Jazz After Dark” on both Friday and Saturday nights, access to the Patron/VIP Area inside the Festival, seated viewing area in front of the Main Stage and much more. A portion of each Patron Pass, $400, is tax-deductible charitable donation to the Telluride Society for Jazz.

VIP Experience Pass

VIP Pass-holders enjoy a VIP/Patron Area with a covered, heated lounge, fire pits, yard games, unobstructed stage views and seating in front of the stage

Treat yourself to a weekend in style! The VIP Experience shares some of the same benefits as the Patron Experience but not quite as extensive. VIP festival-goers will enjoy a hosted, open bar throughout the festival, access to the exclusive Patron/VIP area inside the Festival grounds including yard games, fire pits and a covered, heated lounge with direct stage views, unobstructed stage-front seating, priority check-in at the box office, priority festival entry, upscale restrooms and more.

Safari Cabanas

"Jazz After Dark" Passes

After the festival ends in Town Park on Friday and Saturday (August 3rd and 4th), the music will continue into the night at Telluride's coziest nightclubs and historic venues. Here, you can catch your choice of acts in an intimate, up close and personal setting. The new “Jazz After Dark” passes will allow attendees to visit any of the venues freely, instead of purchasing tickets on an individual show-by-show basis. Available for both Friday and Saturday Night.

Camp out at the Festival in the heart of the Rocky Mountains in Telluride Town Park!

Festival Camping Passes

With the Festival grounds and scenic hiking trails located just steps away, camping is the ultimate way to experience all that Telluride Town Park has to offer. Surrounded by towering mountain peaks, the picturesque campground is a great and social way to experience the Festival. At $50 per person for four nights, camping is also the most affordable way to stay in town. A Camping Pass includes access to the Festival Campground from Thursday, August 2nd to Monday, August 6th. The Festival Campground is located adjacent to the festival grounds. A limited number of RV and Car Camping Passes are also available.
